About Zeet Syrup

Zeet Syrup is used to provide relief from cough. Additionally, Zeet Syrup may also help in providing relief from allergies and nasal congestion due to colds. Coughing (dry or productive) is the body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus or smoke) from airways, thereby preventing respiratory infection.
 
Zeet Syrup combines three drugs: Diphenhydramine, Ammonium chloride, and Sodium citrate. Diphenhydramine works by blocking the action of a chemical substance called histamine, which is responsible for causing allergic reactions.
